In recent years, terms like "trauma," "narcissism," "toxic," and others have skyrocketed. Why is that, and should we be concerned? In this episode, Cole and Terry discuss an article in Christianity Today, "Be Quick to Listen, Slow to ‘Therapy Speak’" by Mia Staub. How can Christians think wisely about the therapeutic worldview, counseling, and therapy speak?

In this interview recorded at Carlton Landing Community Church, Justin discusses marriage, habits, technology, and relationships in an increasingly isolated age. Look for book giveaways on our Instagram page this week!

How do our habits form us? Technology, social media, and smartphones have a huge impact on shaping us - even spiritually. Justin Whitmel Earley is the author of Habits of the Household, Made for People, and The Common Rule. In this episode, he discusses how Christians can approach technology, reconnect relationally, and flourish in a digital age. 

After 7 weeks of C. S. Lewis, what's next? Cole and Terry discuss the series, new books, new teaching series, and think about the upcoming presidential election. 

Over time, C.S. Lewis has only gotten more popular. Now his appeal is worldwide, across denominations, and especially large among American evangelicals. But at the time of his death, Lewis thought his work would be quickly forgotten. What happened to make Lewis a household name? What is his legacy? Will his impact continue to grow in the future?
